In Episode 5 of Mental Notes, I chat to Ellen Beth Abdi about the intersection of music and mental health. We explore Ellen’s journey in the music industry, the challenges of releasing her debut album, the societal pressures faced by musicians, and how I might be better off hanging my microphone from the ceiling instead of putting it in a coffee mug.
Ellen shares insights into her songs and songwriting process, the impact of the pandemic on her career, and the importance of acknowledging privilege. We also discuss why musicians need more support from the government, and how I am a 6 music dad without even trying to be one.
